Deja Vu All Over Again
JBL L200 Studio Master Loudspeakers. God, I wish I had kept a pair from my 4 channel system of the early 70's. Would love to have a pair to hear "reference" quality Rolling Stones. 
Amp/Preamp Synergy for 6K Used
If I had the dollars the CJ 12's and 16 preamp for sale right now on Audiogon would be GONE and in my room. I can't imagine bettering that combo without massive dollars.Have fun

MMF7 + MF A300 + ML Aeon = Goosebumps?

From tubes to solid state
No one is that crazy in the audio world, are they????? 
Reproduction of acoustic instruments with tube amp
